Why get_template_interface_actions needs a policy

The tool appears designed to retrieve interface action configurations from FortiManager templates. Although the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the naming convention and context within a FortiManager management server strongly suggest a read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_template_interface_actions' indicates retrieval of interface actions from a template. The 'get_' prefix is characteristic of read operations that query or retrieve data without modification.

How to control get_template_interface_actions

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fortimanager, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_template_interface_actions:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_template_interface_actions": {}
  }
}

get_template_interface_actions is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Fortimanager — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
